Author: Horatius Bonar Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: John 7:37-39 Lyrics: 1 O everlasting Love,
wellspring of grace and peace,
pour down your fullness from above,
bid doubt and trouble cease.
2 O everlasting Fount
from which the waters burst,
the streams of the eternal mount
that quench time’s sorest thirst.
3 O everlasting Health
from which all healing springs,
my bliss, my treasure, and my wealth,
to you my spirit clings.
4 O everlasting Rest,
lift off life’s load of care!
Relieve, revive this burdened breast,
and ev’ry sorrow bear.
5 O everlasting Strength,
uphold me in the way;
bring me, in spite of foes, at length
to joy, and light, and day! Topics: Blessing Other; God Faithfulness of; God Images and Names of; God Love of; God Power of; Healing; Rest Used With Tune: O EVERLASTING LIGHT Text Sources: Hymns of Faith and Hope, 1861, alt.
